Chapter 32 - Unlocking Flamethrower Armor, A Great Harvest!

Chapter 32: Unlocking Flamethrower Armor, A Great Harvest!The news of Lin Feng killing a Tier-3 zombie appeared in the world channel.

Of course, everyone was too busy trying to survive to pay attention to the current events.

Lin Feng also had no time to admire his recent strike.

【The recently killed Tier-3 zombie dropped a rare blueprint! Flamethrower Armor!】

A notification flashed in Lin Feng’s mind—the zombie dropped a rare blueprint!

The battle continued, but the firepower diminished significantly as the soldiers needed to reload their magazines before firing. However, the pressure eased considerably.

【The Zombie Tide Gate is closing, expected to close within one minute! Survivors, please hold on!】

The system’s voice announced that the Zombie Tide Gate was nearly closed. With part of the gate shut, a large influx of zombies was no longer possible.

The zombie attacks were gradually weakening.

However, at that moment, Lin Feng noticed a frail female zombie standing outside the Zombie Tide Gate. Surprisingly, her clothes were immaculate, and she wore a white dress.

Surrounding her were four Tier-3 zombies!

Although the female zombie’s expression still showed no signs of intelligence, Lin Feng could sense that she was different from the other mindless zombies driven solely by the desire for flesh.

His squad struggled significantly to deal with just one Tier-3 zombie, yet this female zombie was flanked by four of them!

Lin Feng couldn’t fathom how his squad would fare if that female zombie decided to attack.

【Warning! A higher-tier zombie has appeared around your shelter! Tier-4 zombie! Please be on high alert!】

【Your probability of defeating it: 3%!】

However, just as the female zombie looked towards Lin Feng, the Zombie Tide Gate slowly began to close.

With a “bang,” the gate shut completely, severing a few zombie hands in the process.

The zombie tide ended!

【The Zombie Tide Gate has closed. Survivors, please promptly clear out the remaining zombies within your shelter.】

The system’s notification came through, and outside the shelter, countless zombies roared in frustration, their hunger for flesh unmet.

Gradually, the angry roars of the zombies outside subsided, as if nothing happened, and they no longer seemed aware of the living humans inside.

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure from that Tier-4 zombie was immense; if it truly attacked, they wouldn’t have been able to hold out.

“Clear out the remaining zombies!” Lin Feng ordered his soldiers. There were still dozens of zombies on the first floor, but they were just minor threats now, and clearing them posed no significant challenge.

【You have collected 1 white crystal stone!】

【You have collected 1 white crystal stone!】

…

Finally, Lin Feng’s squad cleared out the zombies that invaded. The first floor was in complete disarray. Although the foul blood from the zombies was cleaned up, the marks of the battle remained.

【Clearing the battlefield…】

【Calculating battle results…】

【Record: One of your Marines has been upgraded to Elite Marine during the defense.】

【Record: Seven of your regular army soldiers have been upgraded to Elite Army Soldiers during this battle.】 S~ᴇaʀᴄh the n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

【Record: Four of your Iron Guards have been upgraded to Elite Iron Guards during this battle.】

【In this battle, you killed a total of 1,124 zombies: 1,092 Ordinary Zombies, 31 Tier-2 Mutated Zombies, and 1 Tier-3 Armored Zombie.】

【Collecting loot…】

【You have obtained 1,092 white crystal stones, 31 yellow crystal stones, and 1 Tier-3 blue crystal stone!】

【Current crystal stone balance: 1,253 white crystal stones, 41 yellow crystal stones, 1 blue crystal stone!】

【Your crystal stone balance is excessive. Please convert them into combat power promptly!】

Lin Feng now had over a thousand white crystal stones in his possession!

This was an unprecedented amount, so much that even Lin Feng felt it might be excessive.

【Reading achievement reward for killing a Tier-3 zombie: One high-level lottery draw!】

【Do you want to unlock the rare equipment—Flamethrower Armor?】 the system inquired.

“Confirm unlock!” Lin Feng said in his mind.

【Unlock successful. The exchange store now features yellow crystal stone equipment: Flamethrower Armor!】

【Flamethrower Armor: 20 yellow crystal stones/set (Equip to max-level Iron Guard to upgrade to Steel Flamethrower Soldier!)】

Lin Feng was quite surprised. The resource requirement for upgrading the front line had jumped significantly, with no gradual transition, directly requiring 20 yellow crystal stones. The price difference far exceeded the upgrade from an AK rifle to a Type 97 rifle.

“Are my soldiers all heading towards advanced technology now…” Lin Feng thought to himself.

He examined the armor: a bright red exterior, with a dark red shield on the left hand and a flamethrower on the right. The shield also clearly had flamethrower nozzles.

This was indeed a great harvest!
